    @OWCavalry Sojourn is perfect that’s the problem with the Overwatch devs they always have to screw around with stuff and they always have to mess up a perfect hero if you fricking need to screw around with **** fix your stupid *** Rematra and Junker queen way to OP

  • whoisnerf Nerf (@whoisnerf) reported

    I have been having an issue on overwatch where my binds don't work sometimes and even if i change them it doesn't work. Especially the pinging function.

  • gwenchrsties frankie 🌱 (@gwenchrsties) reported

    i don’t appreciate my wifi not working for hours let me play overwatch

  • Jack_Y_Zhang Jack Zhang (@Jack_Y_Zhang) reported

    @EposVox Now for Crash Bandicoot 4 on Steam and we're set. Crash Bandicoot 4 being BattleNet exclusive is concerning given Overwatch 1's shutdown.

  • ThinThicc Scholarly Bottom (@ThinThicc) reported

    @TheLonely_Wolfy @MaxwithdaPowah @OWCavalry Counterpicking isn't the point of Overwatch but a consequence of how the game is designed. You can tell this isn't the intent because Blizzard literally just admitted they see Pharah's polarizing matchups as a flaw. All in all every problem in the game can be traced back to how-

    @KilroyOW The Saskatoon server could fix overwatch

  • viruvinn david (@viruvinn) reported

    au where reo is in nagi's bathroom and there's no toilet paper but since he has communication issues he starts having a panic attack and throws stuff around while nagi plays Overwatch cursing at his bronze teammates and telling them to delete the game

  • 3rB_FPS ƐrƂ (@3rB_FPS) reported

    @CrakinOW @WinterSkyo No problem man. The problem is the player base was so low in ow1 so when Overwatch 2 came out and the player base grew ginormous the Diamond players who were top 10% are now part of that 1%. It’s just stats.

  • iR3mmy 👑QUEEN REMMY (@iR3mmy) reported

    @OWGrandma it seems to me that overwatch matchmaking is having issues lately

  • JimoarGaming Jimoar (@JimoarGaming) reported

    @Deadly__Kitten @astaranx @guts14955532 Yes they did. That astal person and lots of others keep telling "they said they won't take games off PlayStation" which again I don't believe until it's binding like Nintendo and Nvidia. Also that's a cod deal. They can still keep crash Spyro overwatch Diablo and more off them.

  • EphesusHeed19 Benevolent Blonde (@EphesusHeed19) reported

    @DarkHolocron Nintendo themselves could likely care less about a Microsoft-Activision combo. Best case scenario, getting Crash Bandicoot and/or Overwatch represented in a theoretical future Smash game will be easier, especially, since Banjo-Kazooie & Minecraft got represented in Ultimate.

    In addition, Xbox also claims that if they are able to acquire Activision Blizzard they will also be bringing their games to the service. Meaning we could see cloud streaming support for games like Call of Duty, Overwatch, World of Warcraft, and Diablo IV.

    @AeroViro im sorry to say it but the overwatch oasis glitch video

  • imtheoyster ًًurethra (@imtheoyster) reported

    Is anyone else stuck on the overwatch 2 loading screen, specifically during loading preferences?? Istg I’ve just been having problems left and right since season 3 dropped

  • ArcadiaPSI Arcadia ▶️ ZELDA HYPE TRAIN (@ArcadiaPSI) reported

    @MerryOtakuOW @OWCavalry PC issues are not always known, and it's obnoxious to suggest that you're not allowed to play games online during storms. These things are so varied and unpredictable that a single game of overwatch should not be severe to the point of that in such an event

  • DrrrrkyWrrrrky ~Darky_Warky~ (@DrrrrkyWrrrrky) reported

    how to fix push (in overwatch): remove it or put it in arcade as a perm gamemode for the people who somehow want to play it.

  • elderfurball OsamaBinBallin911 (@elderfurball) reported

    If you go negative in Competitive Overwatch you need to be put into a throwers Queue. @Blizzard_Ent Hire me for the dev team I got hella ideas to fix the clown fiesta

  • BlownFuse_NSFW Dani!~ 🔞 (@BlownFuse_NSFW) reported

    @AesirNSFW Me when Overwatch lmao I lowkey just got rid of the game since I just poured way too many hours than I'd like to admit trying to get out of this loop I could never fix

  • DevonWa10553747 Devon Walton (@DevonWa10553747) reported

    I think my games broken, they’re not shooting back #Overwatch #Overwatch2 #Overwatchfanart

  • DaveCryder David Cryder (@DaveCryder) reported

    @FelipeT74281378 @JayDubcity16 @PostUp_bbb Right, they are paying to have CoD on gamepass... along with crash bandicoot, tony hawk, wow, overwatch, diablo, starcraft, spyro, guitar hero, etc

  • ggrchn grace (@ggrchn) reported

    they really heard me say "i'm having a good time in overwatch 2 competitive" and said ✨let's fix that✨

  • Ytied00 Ytied (@Ytied00) reported

    @PlayOverwatch fix the crashing bug perhaps! i dont have anything open except for overwatch and its still crashing me and destroying my rank!

  • SleepyTheGeek Sleepy (@SleepyTheGeek) reported

    @InfinityWard I play on pc and my fps is broken in mw2/wz2. Won’t fo past 60 fps. I tried mw 2019 and overwatch 2 and the fps on those games are working fine.

  • SqueekyVT Squeeky 🦊 (@SqueekyVT) reported

    SORRY FOR A SUPER SHORT STREAM TODAY!! 😭 I wish my interent issues would just go away, but i have no idea whats wrong so i dont know what to fix. We started The Last of Us tonight, and will be continuing next week for more! Tomorrow may be more Last of Us or more Overwatch.

  • AngelKittyy3 Emily💗 (@AngelKittyy3) reported

    @PrettyPinkMercy @PlayOverwatch if you genuinely think they’re going to bring it back you have issues because overwatch has even said before that they won’t bring it back also you should just donate the skin shouldn’t be the reason for you to donate

  • SleepyTheGeek Sleepy (@SleepyTheGeek) reported

    @InfinityWard I’m experiencing an issue. I play on pc and my fps is broken in mw2/wz2. Won’t go past 60 fps. I tried mw 2019 and overwatch 2 and the fps on those games are working fine. Anyone else having this issue??

  • Rambo_Hair R H (@Rambo_Hair) reported

    @jakewarsaw @tslatedd @DMC_Ryan But what games will move the needle? There hasn’t been a new Spyro game in 15 years and Crash would very likely remain multiplat and is hardly a console seller. Overwatch wont be exclusive. WoW is only on PC and has no place on console. Cod is multiplat. Whats left? Candy Crush?

  • Phyerx Nad (@Phyerx) reported

    Overwatch would have been such a better and bigger game if matchmaking and balancing didn't take 3-4 seasons to fix. Not to mention the competitive part of it was taken more seriously in general. It so sad to see other games do better when it has/had such potential.

    ram overwatch feels so absurdly broken sometimes LMAO
